Hillary Clinton was back on the speaking circuit Thursday, addressing students at Rutgers University in New Jersey and pushing back on those who have called on her to leave the national political scene.

The former secretary of state suggested the criticism has a sexist tone, questioning why unsuccessful male presidential candidates were not told to "shut up" after their losses.

Clinton called out the media for labeling her "shrill," while failing to take issue with some of President Trump's behavior.

"It’s about time that women were allowed to be themselves the way men are allowed to be themselves," she said.

Former U.S. attorney and Fox News contributor Andy McCarthy said it’s “ridiculous” that some Democrats are complaining about Attorney General William Barr’s review of the origins of the Russia investigation.
